说明:该题被很多同学称为最变态最抽象的难题之一; 因为个人在艺术方面积累的素材太少, 导致练习时没能充分展开,后来迫于时间紧急,本文没有进一步充实。虽然本篇习作没有完 篇,但我还是放在这里了,还是希望写出来的部分能对大家有一点点价值。
Science and art are the two major aspects of civilization of our society.
When it comes to the function of science or art, there are always a host of different opinions held by different individuals in different fields. Is the function of science to reassure and the purpose of art to upset? Admittedly, to some extent, science could be used to reassure and art to upset. However, it is not always the case and both science and art are double-edged swards.
To begin with, it's true that the primary function of science is to reassure, but do science bring us only benefits? Of course not. As is well known that although science has resulted in such progress in almost every respect in our societies, yet a lot of problems arise as byproducts of the development of science. As a matter of fact, science does sometimes bring about unexpected results that may upset human beings in many aspects, especially in modern societies with explosive development of science and technology. UFor instance, as the swift and great progress in computer science and space technology goes on, people from different countries have more opportunities to communicate with each other more directly, deeply and thoughtfully. Wile on the one hand it may make people from different nations to understand the cultures of each other and thus prevent some avoidable cultural conflicts or even wars, on the other it also leads people to give doubt to their own traditional value systems, ethics and customs, which to a large extent contributes to chaos of social moralities. Another example concerns the bio-technology clone developed during the past century which attracted the attention of most people over the world because such a science technology would allow to manufacture all kinds of organisms even human beings in factories. Undeniably, clone will benefit us a lot when used in stock raising or genetic therapy. Yet, how can you imagine what would happen if we clone a person like Hitler? And even if we clone a common individual, a myriad of ethical problems may still occur.
